Getting Started with Eclipse and the SWT - hunterK的专栏

This site contains some tutorials and example programs that will help programmers who are new to Eclipse and the Standard Widget Toolkit (SWT) install Eclipse correctly and run some simple Java/SWT programs.  The main focus of this site is illustrating the use of the SWT for developing Java-based desktop applications.  We have included information on compiling Eclipse/SWT applications into executables with GCJ.  We have also included a brief introduction to installing the CDT (C/C++) plug-in into Eclipse that supports the development of C and C++ programs and an introduction to the Java Native Interface that permits Java and C programs to communicate with each other.  The majority of the tutorials focus on Windows (XP) but the examples that we have run on Linux also work correctly.
